@Finnigan I think I can do that. $30 plus shipping? We've dealt before I think. Send me a PM with info.

Craigslist ad has been updated with more pictures and list of things I think are in the box. Take everything for $200. That's a hell of a deal.

@Finnigan I have the cb550 caliper and mount, and what I think are 3 cb750 calipers with a bunch of brake lines.

Still have everything except extra carb rack and rotor. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mpo/5460511369.html

Re: FS: 1978 honda cb550 stock with extras SoCal Thar she is.

Any luck? I have a set that I might be willing to part with. PM me.

:( Time has come to sell my lady. Here's a link to the CL ad if you're interested. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/5100823262.html

DaveBarbier - Looks good, looks like what I've got. Been doing a lot of check on this thing, just about everything possibly and every adjustment. Then... Here's something interesting. Do you guys think that's a bit excessive of movement? Indirect evidence that the primary chain has a...

I have one for sale. Price is negotiable for a DTT member. :) http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/4871922349.html

Weekend bump. I'll be bringing the bike to the Long Beach Vet stadium for the motorcycle swap meet if anybody is interesting in seeing it up close and perhaps taking it home.

Bump. How much interest would you say there is in these bikes nowadays?

Hi all. I'm looking to sell my BSA. No paperwork. Hoping it'll go to a nice home where it'll get some attention. Here's a link and I'll post up more pics if I can. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/4760130572.html

Next part in my continuing saga of failure. On the thought that I was actually using gas that was too high of an octane causing overheating I put some 87. No change. The spark plugs!!! In fact when I took a better look appear to be overheating. I'll try attaching a pic. They're a bit flaky...

I checked it out again today before getting dark. I checked the tensioner operation and it seems good. I turned the bolt clockwise and it returns, counter clockwise it has less movement as it's already taut against the chain. I turned the crank nut and watched the valves move up and down...

Awesome stuff. It prompted me to do another inspection tonight of the chain tensioner. Per the manual, set the timing to about 15 degrees and loosen the lock nut. BUT!!... As I look for more info I see that the bolt should turn in on its own after the lock nut is loosened? It shouldn't move...

Yessir. Everything according to the shop manual, Chilton manual, and I even ponied up for the Clymer manual to reduce the chance of discrepancy. I'll be doing it again soon just in case. Maybe turning the bolt a bit to make sure it's got tension. The only thing is when I loosen the nut and the...

I appreciate the responses guys. In all my searches for this, cam chain noise been prevalent at idle without needing to rev or load it up at any speed. On the last can chain adjustment there was about 1/4", or just under, of the threaded bolt exposed. I've seen no specs on how far it's able to...

Privacy settings fixed. Thanks for the input. I'm going for pin point diagnosis if I can. I would need to drop the pan and remove exhaust to get to it. I'd like to keep the tear down to a minimum until absolutely needed. But it seems to be upper end to me could be lower because of my limited...

Howdy good folks. I hate to be one of those people who just come here to ask for help without being able to reciprocate, but I'm coming to my whits, and knowledge's end. I'm having a baffling issue with my bike. Under load, often from a stop or while already in motion, from 2800 - 3200 rpm...
